hmmmm..... mine's all metal. Never noticed the part # change.

 

I guess they just changed the number.

 

I actually just used the stock one, it was in great shape

 

K&N filters are TERRIBLE!!!!!

I'd never run one in anything I plan on OWNING.

they let wayyyy too much dirt, etc. through. Terrible filter.

 

Here....check it out....

 

I'm pretty anal about this stuff. I know, I know, OCD.

 

Oh.....a question for certain Greddy kit owners who meet these requirements....

1)You have a Greddy Turbo (any turbo setup I guess)
2)You have a test pipe
3)You have a STRAIGHT ANGLED (not tilted up or anything) DUAL exhaust (Invidia, HKS, whatever)
4)You have put more than 100 miles on the car since the install of all of the above....

If you have ALL of the above, then please answer this.....

Are you torching your bumpers?

 

^Nope, no plastic torching or melting whatsoever. I'm not even getting any deposits on my car bumper

 

I have the Invidia V3, though louder then anything I have veer heard in my life, no touching of the back bumper

 

I did have a test pipe on there for over 100 miles and I did not scorch my bumpers. I used to check frequently because I had several huge gouts of flame come out of the left tail pipe (according to concerned bystanders).

I have a hi flow cat on there now and at idle the exhaust gas temp is rather mild.
